The Gorgeous Peeta Mellark

I’ve been a fan of Josh Hutcherson ever since I saw him on the movie “Cirque du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistant”. He played the role of Steve “Leopard” Leonard, the antagonist of the film. Next, he was cast in the film “Journey to the Center of the Earth” along with Brendan Fraser. By this time, he’s already my crush and I’m already a certified fan.

Then, Josh Hutcherson was cast as Peeta Mellark – the boy who loved Katniss Everdeen in the popular “Hunger Games” trilogy. This movie propelled his status as a blockbuster star. He became so popular specially in his hometown of Kentucky. He recently supported the Kentucky Wildcats and he was given the three-finger salute by fans.

He looks very gorgeous in this picture published on E! Online.
